Ms. Zhao Yuzhu advised Shen Qingyu not to interfere.

"Don't be fooled by how confidently this Miss Yuqiao speaks; who knows, this might just be fate? Didn't Erbao's master say it's a match made in heaven?"

"What if they end up happy? What kind of person are you to stop them?"

Shen Qingyu nodded.

Ms. Zhao Yuzhu could tell at a glance that Qi Yunxiao still had feelings for Shen Qingyu.

"Are you really not going to rekindle your relationship with him?"

Shen Qingyu spread her hands: "Mom, I've already told you what happened before. If it were you, would you still rekindle your old relationship?"

Zhao Yuzhu glared at him: "If it were me, I would beat him to death!"

That's it.

Ms. Zhao Yuzhu gave up trying to persuade her.

Shen Qingyu and her family lived in the courtyard specially arranged by the Qian family.

Under the influence of their grandmother's sweet treats, Da Bao and Xiao Bao decided to sleep with Zhao Yuzhu that night.

Zhao Yuzhu proudly led the two children to her room.

Just as Shen Qingyu closed the door and was about to go to her space to wash up, the window was suddenly pushed open, and a man rushed in.

Before Shen Qingyu could scream, the man spoke up: "It's me."

It's Cheng Ping.

Cheng Ping seemed to have drunk some alcohol; his eyes were red, and he smelled strongly of alcohol.

Shen Qingyu roughly guessed what he was here for, so she wasn't so flustered anymore: "What are you here for?"

Cheng Ping stared intently at Shen Qingyu: "Today, I just want to figure out some things."

"you say."

"What happened between you and... Xiao Yunqi? Have you really gotten a divorce?"

Cheng Ping had been sensing something was off: Shen Qingyu didn't refuse Xiao Yunqi's help, but she also kept her distance.

Xiao Yunqi, on the other hand, seems to be paying more and more attention to Shen Qingyu.

This situation made Cheng Ping reluctant to let go, yet he saw no hope.

Torn between his own feelings, he impulsively agreed to Yuqiao's marriage proposal.

But once he agreed, he regretted it.

The thought of marrying that loud and boisterous woman tomorrow filled Cheng Ping with resentment. After drinking quite a bit of alcohol, he decided to find out what was going on.

Shen Qingyu didn't hesitate for long. She met Cheng Ping's eyes frankly, her gaze clear: "I signed a divorce agreement with him, but we haven't registered it with the town government yet."

Why not register it?

He said he was not available at the moment.

"Hehehe... Do you know why he's inconvenient?" Cheng Ping sneered, recalling Xiao Yunqi's background.

Shen Qingyu wasn't surprised at all: "I know. He told me."

Cheng Ping didn't believe it: "...He told you about his identity?"

"Mm." Shen Qingyu nodded.

“I understand… Faced with such immense wealth, if he were willing, and you have three children, you would rekindle your old relationship for the sake of the children.”

Cheng Ping nodded dejectedly, thinking he knew the whole truth.

Shen Qingyu opened her mouth, but did not offer any explanation.

If this can make Cheng Ping give up, then perhaps I don't need to explain things too clearly?

Cheng Ping turned to leave, but when he reached the window, he hesitated and turned back to stare at Shen Qingyu.

"If I were of noble birth and could provide you and your child with sufficient protection and wealth, would you be willing to give me even the slightest chance?"

Shen Qingyu shook her head and said firmly, "I don't care if you are a prince or a chivalrous knight, I will not have anything to do with you."

"Why? Am I really that worthless?" Cheng Ping got stuck on this thought.

"It has nothing to do with whether you are good or bad. It's just that I have no feelings for you and no thoughts of that kind of thing."

"From beginning to end, I never had the intention of relying on you or taking advantage of you."

“I told you, I can support my own children on my own.”

Upon receiving Shen Qingyu's reply, the light in Cheng Ping's eyes dimmed.

He fell in love with a woman for the first time in his life, and the ending was tragic.

Never mind, let's go.

Cheng Ping pushed open the window and jumped out.

Shen Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief, closed the window, and was about to go to her space to wash up when there was a knock on the door.

Shen Qingyu went to open the door and found that Qi Yunxiao was standing outside without making a sound.

Huh?

Pretty busy tonight?

Qi Yunxiao had been standing at the door for who knows how long, and he didn't know how much of what Cheng Ping and he had just said had been heard.

Shen Qingyu was speechless. She called him in, closed the door, and asked, "How much did you hear?"

Qi Yunxiao's eyes sparkled: "All of them."

That shameless guy just asked her if she would reconcile with him for the sake of their three children.

She did not deny it.

She didn't deny it!

Shen Qingyu: "..."

So what's the point of men being so good at kung fu these days?

They appear and disappear without a trace!

Silently!

It makes people feel completely unsafe!

Before Qi Yunxiao could speak, Shen Qingyu took the initiative to clarify.

"There's no possibility between us. The reason I didn't make things clear to Cheng Ping just now was because I didn't want him to overthink things."

"If it's convenient for you now, I can send the divorce papers to the prefectural city for filing."

The light in Qi Yunxiao's eyes also went out.

"..."

After Qi Yunxiao clearly stated that it was "inconvenient," Shen Qingyu watched him leave the room.

If I were still as fat and ugly as the original body, would they still flock to me?

Oh!

man!

Shen Qingyu scoffed at the thought.

Nothing happened that night. As dawn broke, the Qian residence became lively.

Wedding preparations have begun.

Since Cheng Ping was marrying into the Qian family, there was no need for a wedding procession or anything like that. After the two of them were ready, they would hold a wedding ceremony at the Qian residence, and then invite familiar relatives, friends, and business partners to a meal. That would be the end of it.
